COVID-19 Changes
Your Safety
To ensure our employee and customer safety, we will be operating with some changes you need to be aware of.
Face Masks
We will require that our customers and employees wear face masks when you are in our vehicles. We recommend you wear them when in our store or office as well. We can provide you with face masks if you do not have them.
Limitation on put in locations
Until we can get back to normal, we will be operating with only two put in locations on the weekends. Shelvin Rock and Jamesville.
Changes to transportation
To provide better safety for all of you, on weekends, we do require that you drop your group off at your put in location prior to coming to the canoe rental. This will allow one or a few people to drive your vehicles to us and we will transport fewer people at a time to the put in location. We have links below to show you where to go for the put in location you choose.
